Bona Fide

Jamiroquai (Mostly funk, but you can hear jazz influences in a lot of songs)

 

That's all I have, but I got just into this stuff recently too. I'll be watching this thread for sure. I've found these Wikipedia articles to be very helpful when looking for new music: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_jazz

 

Scroll down and there's a nice list of artists.

Got that slight acid jazz vibe on it. Acid jazz being a bit more upbeat usually than that. 

 

Older Jamiroquai stuff like:

 

Talullah - Jamiroquai

 

 

 

Groove Theory - Ride

 

 

D'influence - hypnotize

Some more.

 

Hil st Soul - For your love

 

 

Erykah Badu - Back in the day

 

 

 

The Brand New heavies - Never Stop

Incognito - Positivity

Jamiroquai - Space cowboy

 

 

 

Pure acid jazz in London didn't unfortunately last too long. Not all above are directly connected to that London 90's acid scene either, but from them same era and many ways similar.

 

Btw Jallen89 i guess you are 1989 born like me?
